What Save Lodge does

Save Lodge bv is a Dutch circular construction company headquartered in Groningen that designs, manufactures, and sells modular green facade systems, nature-inclusive storage units, and green divider walls built from regional post-consumer mixed-plastic (PE and PP) waste. Its core technology is a stackable planter-box system manufactured at the Groene Plastic Fabriek in Arnhem (operated by sister company Save Plastics), filled with peat-free substrate produced by partner Humus Guru from fermented green waste, and irrigated via computer-controlled drip systems using harvested rainwater. The product family comprises the Save Wall (green facade, single- or double-sided), Save Lodge One (a circular storage shed that converts 9 m² of ground into 20.5 m² of green surface), and the Save Divider Wall (double-sided green separator for playgrounds and parking areas).

Save Lodge generates revenue primarily through one-time product sales — direct enterprise sales to housing corporations, municipalities, industrial sites, and schools, plus an e-commerce webshop (savewall.eu) selling self-build packages priced via an online calculator. Optional assembly services and plant packages are billed separately. The Save Together program creates a differentiated B2B distribution channel where companies supply their own mixed-plastic waste (minimum 250 kg) for conversion into custom green facades at no processing surcharge, while a newer circular horeca chain (launched 2025) extends this model into the hospitality sector. Products qualify for Dutch MIA (45%) and VAMIL (75%) fiscal incentives under RVO milieulijst 2024 code F5301, materially lowering the effective price for buyers.

The company operates within the Save Companies Group (alongside Save Plastics, Humus Guru, Save Home, Save Cabin, Kunststofreus, and Save Wall), giving it vertical integration across plastic waste intake, substrate production, and product manufacturing. Geographically active in the Netherlands (Groningen, Arnhem, Hilversum, Leeuwarden, Dordrecht, Zweeloo, Silvolde) and Germany (Bremen) via Save Lodge Deutschland, it targets the Netherlands' 3,800+ industrial sites covering 98,068 hectares as its primary addressable market. Key customers include housing corporation De Alliantie, municipalities Arnhem/Almere/Amsterdam, COA, Marne Mosterd, and a horeca consortium led by Oliehoorn and HANOS. The business has not disclosed revenue, headcount, or external funding.

Revenue model

1. Green Facade Systems (Save Wall, Save Divider Wall): Sale of modular green facade systems. Products are sold as self-build packages (excluding plants and assembly) or with full installation service. Pricing is calculated via an online calculator based on dimensions. A consultation call follows online orders to confirm details before finalization. Payment is made at point of online order; adjustments are refunded if order is modified or cancelled before confirmation.
2. Save Lodge One (Nature-inclusive Storage Unit): Sale of pre-fabricated circular storage units with green walls and green roof. Sold online via savewall.eu. Each unit is approximately 15% more expensive than a standard storage unit but adds significant green surface area.
3. Save Together Program: Companies supply their own mixed-plastic waste (minimum 250 kg), which Save Lodge processes at no extra charge into planter boxes for a green facade. No surcharge for intake and shredding; regular product pricing applies.
4. Assembly and Installation Services: Optional mounting/assembly services offered. Montage tarieven are indicative and based on post-calculation, depending on site conditions.
5. Plant Packages: Optional plant packages available for purchase alongside the self-build system. Plants are seasonally available; winter delivery is not possible.

Core offering

Save Lodge designs, manufactures, and supplies modular circular green wall systems (Save Wall), nature-inclusive storage units (Save Lodge One), and green separation walls (Save Divider Wall) made primarily from recycled plastic waste. The company serves urban greening, biodiversity, and climate-adaptation needs for housing corporations, municipalities, businesses, schools, governments, and individual homeowners through direct project sales and an online webshop.

Product overview

Save Lodge is a Dutch circular construction company that makes green facade and vertical garden systems from regional plastic waste that would otherwise be incinerated. The core product family consists of three modular, stackable systems: (1) the Save Wall — the flagship green facade (single or double-sided) for attaching to existing walls; (2) Save Lodge One — a nature-inclusive circular storage unit with green walls and roof, built from the same stacked flower pot system; and (3) the Save Divider Wall — a double-sided green separation wall for school playgrounds, parking lots, and pedestrian routing. All three products share the same technology stack: posts and pots are stamped from recycled mixed-plastic waste, filled with peat-free substrate made from fermented green residues, planted with winter-hardy native plants, and irrigated via computer-controlled drip systems using harvested rainwater. The Save Wall Calculator is an online self-service configuration and quoting tool. The Save Together Program extends the core offering by letting companies supply their own plastic waste for conversion into a custom Save Wall.

Emerging players

• StoneCycling: Dutch circular building-materials company producing bricks and facade panels from construction and demolition waste. Comparable to Save Lodge in the broader circular-construction materials category and Dutch origin, though focused on masonry rather than modular green systems.
• ECOR: Circular building-materials company producing panels from recycled waste streams. Adjacent comparable to Save Lodge in transforming waste feedstocks (mixed paper, cardboard, agricultural fibre) into structural building products — sharing the 'waste-to-construction' circular narrative though not in vertical greening specifically.

Direct peers

• Sempergreen: Netherlands-based market leader in green walls, green roofs, and sedum-based facade systems. Directly competes with Save Lodge in the vertical-greening category serving Dutch municipalities, housing corporations, and developers, with a much larger installed base and broader product catalog.
• Mobilane: Dutch green-wall and living-facade specialist (LivePanel, Mobilane Green Screen) with deep roots in Dutch and European B2B markets. Directly competes with Save Wall as a modular, project-based green facade solution for commercial and residential buildings.
• Plantek Systems: Dutch modular green-roof and vertical-greening systems company. Direct overlap with Save Lodge's modular, project-based approach to greening buildings for Dutch municipalities and developers.
• Sage Vertical Garden (Sagewalls): International provider of modular green wall systems for interiors and exteriors. Comparable to Save Lodge in offering modular, planter-based living walls targeting commercial real estate, hospitality, and architectural projects.

Broad incumbents

• Naue Grünbau / Optigrün: Established European green-roof and green-infrastructure providers with broad portfolios across DACH and beyond. Comparable to Save Lodge in serving municipalities and developers on climate-adaptive building greening, though as broader incumbents rather than specialized modular-facade specialists.
• LiveWall: Established North American modular green-wall system with broad commercial real estate and institutional footprint. Offers overlapping modular planter-box functionality and serves architects, developers, and property managers — comparable end customers to Save Lodge's enterprise segment.

Regional players

• Biotop Landschaftsgestaltung: German landscape architecture and green-infrastructure firm active in climate-adaptive urban greening. Comparable to Save Lodge in the integrated grey-green-blue approach to climate-resilient urban projects, though focused on the German market.
• Climagrün: Germany-based specialist in green-roof and green-wall systems, serving DACH-region projects. Comparable to Save Lodge Deutschland's Klimamauer offering as Save Lodge expands into Germany, though not yet active in Save Lodge's Netherlands core.
